Lost a dust jacket?



An unfortunate part of the POD production process is that original copies of the books had to be destroyed in order to produce digital scans. As you can imagine, this broke my heart.

But the upshot of this is that I now have a lot of original first edition dust jackets hanging around the office. As any book collector knows, jackets get ripped, or discoloured, or faded, so I thought I'd offer these up for any readers or collectors of the series who have lost a dust jacket and would like a replacement. Here, in no particular order, are the jackets I have to hand:

The Peregrine Falcon
